Set against the backdrop of the 1971 Bangladesh genocide, The Diary of West Bengal follows the journey of Suhasini, a Hindu widow. With her husband killed in the genocide, Suhasini joins a group of widowed and destitute women for safety. Their journey was from Bangladesh to West Bengal; many of Suhasini's companions died along the way.
Suhasini survives and reaches Kolkata, West Bengal. There, Suhasini falls prey to "love jihad" and encounters severe religious discrimination. The film depicts her witnessing the exploitation of foreign nationals as votebanks from the Government of West Bengal. Determined to expose the political machinations, Suhasini embarks to compel the Indian government and human rights organizations to take action.
